Clutch screws do suck! I used the air hammer trick on the smaller ones, but the door hinges I tryed to get off with a Snap-On socket with no luck. I assume I needed a buddy inside with a torch heating at the same time...

At least with your layoff you have some time to work on the non costly details. Good luck on your job hunt!

Well I actually had to weld bolts to the tops of the clutch scews on the hinge to get them out cuz even heat didnt do the trick!! [ [ [S [S

Thanx I hope I get something soon!!!!
